Complete menu from the Boston and Maine streamliner "Flying Yankee". The train went into service in 1935 and was renamed, serving other routes during World War II. There was no kitchen or dining car for food preparation on the train; passengers ate at their seats with trays similar to airline service. The food for the train was provided by the Armstrong Company, who had a concession arrangement at Boston and Maine stations similar to that of the business relationship of Fred Harvey and the Santa Fe railroad.
